Yup though it's kind of lame. Too much went on to review without giving things away.

read your review. What are people finding offensive?

Just finished and started

[Dragana]

This week I read 3 books for this challenge: (too depressing for my taste, but writing was very good) (classic pnr romance with vampires) (high fantasy with wonderful world descriptions and intriguing race of main characters). And I think even two of them have red details. Yay for me.
I started which also has a red font, but I doubt I will finish it until tomorrow.

[Amy J.]

Finished . Next up

[Christina]

My internet has been giving me fits so I haven't really been online, but I did get some good reading in. :) was just a little too all over the place for me and kind of disappointing. and were pretty good. And I loved and can't believe I put off reading it for so long. I'm about to start next.

[✿Claire✿]

I think I picked the wrong day to read P.S. I Love You, I'm already feeling emotional so I'm crying at most of the chapters! But it's such a good book!

[Amy]

I've been reading the lunar chronicles and . They both have red. And they are both great. In fact I think I like Scarlet even better than Cinder. I was already involved in the "world" so I didn't need to put the pieces together as much. I'm not a big fan of Young Adult books, but these are really interesting. Traditional Fairy Tales blended with stronger female characters and a dose of Sci-Fi world building. I'm only sad that I started these so soon. Now I have to wait for the next two. lol

[✿Claire✿]

Finished , what a brilliant book.

[Christal]

Finished , , and . The last two were really good, but the first not so much.

[Midu]

finished , reading

[Aneeqah]

Amy, I actually went to the author's signing last week and got to meet with her!! I really enjoyed Cinder (and bought Scarlet, which was personalized for me) and can't wait to pick up Scarlet. =) I'm glad you've liked the series so much so far!!

Christal, what did you think of Dance of the Shadows? I've seen some mixed reviews so far.

So I am currently reading , which I'm sure I'll finish either tonight or early tomorrow.

[Barbara ★]

I finished which was wonderfully romantic.

This weekend I have to read a few library books that need to be returned by Tuesday. So I have the following books ready to go and not a red book in sight. :(

Not offensive so much as annoying. They are finding fault with the authors lack of correct historical information as well as the Japanese language that is used in the book. I have vague ideas of Japanese culture so these things didn't bother me. Though I remember one review mentioning panda bears - which I believe are Chinese not Japanese- but they appeared in the book anyway. Also the author made some pretty nasty comments about not caring what people said about his book.

[Midu]

ohhh okay!

[Nancy]

Finished #20 and my red cover book . I will finish up this week and am reading . Don't have any purple cover books for next week :( but am planning to hopefully read at least one white cover book for the final week!

[Robin (Saturndoo)]

Hi Friends!!!!!! **waves and gives out hugs***

How's everyone doing??? Me, I'm doing good. I miss hanging around GR but try to stop in every chance I get ☺ Looks like everyone is reading some good books and for the most part enjoying them!!

I haven't read a lot the last couple of weeks that meet the page number qualifications for this challenge. I think out of 7 or 8 books I had 2 or 3 that I could add here :( I have some other challenges that I desperately need to finish up/work on and the books for those are/have been less than 170 pages LOL Go figure...Right?

Anyways just wanted to stop in and say hi and hopefully later today or tomorrow I will get my books posted for all of my challenges and get caught back up with everyone and my groups!!!

Take care and see you all on the flip side ☺

[Fairlee]

Just finished House of Silk and started Bookplate Special.

Yes, I bought this yesterday, after your review...and in a moment of weakness. LOL!

If you like highlanders, time travel and strong heroines, you should enjoy it.

[Barbara ★]

I finished which I greatly disliked and which I liked I've read it before though I didn't realize it until 1/4 way through. I need something a little lighter so I will start tomorrow which looks like it'll work for purple.

[Lisa Kay]

I don't know how I feel about mixing highlanders with time-travel, but I'm game...today, anyway. ☺

[Christal]

Aneeqah wrote: "Christal, what did you think of Dance of the Shadows? I've seen some mixed reviews so far...."

I didn't really care for it, Aneeqah. The idea was good but the actual story was poorly executed and all the characters were pretty flat.

[Christina]

Finished and . Next up is .

[Kellyanne]

So to celebrate Valentine's week, I read two very different love stories and . (I also read , LOVE that series and can't wait till arrives in my mail box!)

Unfortunately, I didn't enjoy Slammed at all. I liked the Slam poetry idea, but the rest was a mixture of too sappy or too contrived :( I had such high hopes. But that said, I am not really a traditional romantic, so the problem is probably more so with me. I did think it would be a great book for an actual YA audience (rather than an adult enjoying YA. The messages were much more strongly geared to that age bracket).

Luckily the Rosie Project was great, so I still got my romance fix!

Will finish today. Haven't quite decided what is up next... Some possibilities are or maybe ??

Finished my 10th book last night - and started - the cover on my copy looks nicer, but that edition isn't on GR at the moment

[★ gwiz ★]

Im onto reading the Unearthly series




Dont think Radiant can count towards the challenge but Im still going to read it :D as it is part of the series.

And Unearthly is a blue purple and Boundless is a red purple. Not sure if I'll be able to get any other purple covers in this week or not.

[Barbara ★]

Today was a good reading day. Finished and which were both surprisingly good.

OHHHHHHHHHH my favorite color ☺ I LOVE ALL THE PURPLE LK!!!!!!!!! I think I will have to work in something purple for this one!

I hope you end up enjoying the series, gwendolyn! The last book has to be my least favorite, unfortunately. The first two are spectacular though!

So I finished up last night, and I was [and still am] far too heartbroken over the ending to start something new. That's the problem with reading a book like that, I suppose. After recovering a bit, I will be finishing up next, and then moving onto once my Kindle charges. =)
